Hi Neil,

Thanks for the reply, I was told the same thing from Mitch at McNeel. So I should be all set here.

Just a clarification, you are not going to "send" the model to RhinoCAM,
RhinoCAM runs *inside Rhino*, that is the principal advantage. The part for
0 CAM will correspond with the world 0 by default, but you can also create
custom machining planes and origins as you wish by using the Set MCS option
under MOps. You can imagine it's like moving around the model instead of
moving the model itself.

If you have a bilaterally symmetric object, aligning the symmetry axis with
one of the principal axes (X or Y) is generally a good idea from both a
modeling standpoint as well as a CAM standpoint.
